Arisa is the godmother of the 2020 edition of the Bianca d'Aponte Award in Aversa, the Italian contest for female singer-songwriters that has become a highly prestigious event in the Italian music scene. The announcement was made during a special evening of the Award, held in Rome on December 18 at the Teatro Eduardo De Filippo dell'Officina delle Arti Pier Paolo Pasolini, an evening in which the new competition announcement was also presented.
Arisa will be responsible for presiding over the jury in the next edition of the competition, scheduled to take place at the Cimarosa theater in Aversa on October 23 and 24, 2020, and for singing and recording a song by Bianca d'Aponte, the singer-songwriter to whom the Award is dedicated.
The Bianca d'Aponte Award, which benefits from the artistic direction of Ferruccio Spinetti, will reach its 2020th edition in 16. The competition announcement and the registration form are available on www.premiobiancadaponte.it . Participation is as always free, while the deadline is set for April 28.
